We'd been watching the Shining. We were staying in an old church building. In hindsight, taking the shortcut home after midnight, in the mist, through the old graveyard was a bad idea.
I'm not sure what started it, but suddenly all the hairs on my neck had gone up and I was crapping myself. It was almost as bad as when, after a few cups of coffee too many and buzzing on caffeine, I got freaked out by my own reflection in the toilets.
When were you last really scared?

Long story short, I posted about this in an earlier post about having my diary stolen:
www.b3ta.com/questions/diaries/post71241/
This all happened just before Christmas.
The guy who did this to me, as mentioned, was a guy who'd be banged up for ABH, GBH and buggery (probably). He saw me in a nightclub after he'd been thrown out of the house and decided it was my fault.
Yeh, it's my fault that I callously lock my door with my possesions inside so as to tempt you into kicking my door in - you ignorant twat.
So I'm in the gents and he comes in and has me by the neck saying it's my fault and he wants money from me.
I was terrified as I knew he'd make good on his promise.
I said I didn't have any and that I'd meet him the next day to give it to him. Well, he did know where I lived. I went with an 'ard mate who I'd told the full story too. Thankfully he wasn't there.
I was still scared and I moved out the next day. Giving up my bond and the rest of it - I never spoke to the landlady again.
I nearly quit Uni over Christmas as I just could't cope, but my friends made me stick it out - I stayed with my friend Mani for a couple of weeks while I found a place and I ended up renting a palce from a lecture who was a good guy. It was, of course, odd renting from a lecturer, but he was cool so that was ok.
I was twitchy for about 3 months and wouldn't go anywhere without my mates.
That to me was the epitomy of terror.
I still don't like being held by the neck - well, who does? Well, I'm sure some people do....
Sorry for the serious story, but I **was** genuinely scared.
